Re: [434] World BASE Race Romsdalen 2008!
Here is a song from Santa (Svein Kvam Trollkeeper number one)!
He drove through the tunnel every morning at 9
Delivering the mail, he always felt fine
Looking at the mountains he got inspired
Working on his plan he never seemed tired
Befriending all the people round the foot of the hill
He got all the means to deploy his will
A race 'and so on'
A World Base Race
Spreading his message on the Internet
In July twothousandeight everything was set
The fastest flyers from all over the globe
Everybody hellbent to show that they could cope
The 7th they were gathered at the mountain top
When the the wind subsided, they were ready to drop
To race 'and so on'
To do The World Base Race
There were Shane McConkey and Shane from Down Under
Roaring down the hillside, sounding like thunder
Livia, Tom Erik and Hans lonked funky
Also Andreas -the redhot hunky
Getting through the rounds, they all got sweat
Going real low, a couple got wet
In the race, the race 'and so on'
The World Base Race
The losers went out without acting sore
And late the second day, they were down to 4
The 3rd day rose, people flocked at the strip
From near and from far, lots of folks made the trip
The final featured Ronny versus Shane
With Ronny appearing in the left hand lane
In the race, the race 'and so on'
The World Base Race
Off the platforms they dove when the starter yelled 'GO'
Shane McConckey struck like lightning, Ronny looked a fraction slow
But a finishing burst took him cross the line first
He loved the champagne - salty water cant quench thirst.
To Kristin and crew: You were right on cue
To Johnny B: Good, and to Paul: Thank you
For the race, the race 'and so on'
The first World Base Race
